Step 1
|
In the Cisco DNA Center GUI, click the Menu icon () and choose .
|
Step 2
|
In the left pane, you can either search for a model config by entering its name in the Search field, or expand Wireless and choose Advanced SSID Configuration.
|
Step 3
|
In the Design Instances pane, check the Default Advanced SSID Design check box to use the default advanced SSID design.
Note
|
You cannot edit or delete the Default Advanced SSID Design.
|
|
Step 4
|
In the Design Instances pane, click Add Design.
The Add Advanced SSID Configuration window appears.
|
Step 5
|
In the Design Name field, enter a name for the model config.
|
Step 6
|
In the General tab, click the Peer-to-Peer Blocking drop-down list and choose an option for peer-to-peer blocking.
Peer-to-peer blocking is applied to individual WLANs. Each client inherits the peer-to-peer blocking setting of the WLAN to
which it is associated. Peer-to-peer blocking enables you to have more control over how traffic is directed.
-
DISABLE: Disables peer-to-peer blocking and forwards traffic locally within the wireless controller whenever possible.
-
DROP: Causes the wireless controller to discard the client packets.
-
FORWARD UP: Causes the client packets to be forwarded on an upstream VLAN. The device above the wireless controller decides what action to take regarding the packets. The device can either be a router or a Layer 3 switch.
-
ALLOW PVT GROUP: Applicable to preshared key (PSK) clients only. Traffic is forwarded based on the associated identity PSK (IPSK) tags for
the source and destination client devices.
|
Step 7
|
Click the Passive Client Enable toggle button to enable the Passive Client feature.
Passive clients are wireless devices, such as scales and printers, that are configured with a static IP address. These clients
do not transmit any IP information (such as IP address, subnet mask, and gateway information) when they associate with an
access point. As a result, when passive clients are used, the wireless controller never knows the IP address unless they use DHCP.
|
Step 8
|
Click the Assisted Roaming Prediction Optimization toggle button to configure an assisted roaming prediction list for a WLAN.
|
Step 9
|
Click the Neighbor List Dual Band toggle button to configure a neighbor list on a dual radio band.
|
Step 10
|
Click the Network Admission Control (NAC-SNMP) toggle button to enable SNMP NAC support on the WLAN.
|
Step 11
|
Click the Network Admission Control (NAC-Radius) toggle button to enable RADIUS NAC support on the WLAN.
|
Step 12
|
From the DHCP Required drop-down list, choose Yes or No to pass the DHCP request before going into the RUN state (a state where the client can pass traffic through the wireless controller).
|
Step 13
|
Expand DHCP Server and enter the IP address of the DHCP server in the IP Address field.
|
Step 14
|
Click the FlexConnect Local Authentication toggle button to enable FlexConnect local authentication.
|
Step 15
|
In the NAS ID field, enter the network access server identifier.
|
Step 16
|
Click Client Data Rates to configure the following client data rate limits per client by entering values in the respective fields:
-
Average Downstream Data Rate Per Client (kbps)
-
Burst Downstream Data Rate Per Client (kbps)
-
Average Downstream Real-Time Rate Per Client (kbps)
-
Burst Downstream Real-Time Rate Per Client (kbps)
-
Average Upstream Data Rate Per Client (kbps)
-
Burst Upstream Data Rate Per Client (kbps)
-
Average Upstream Real-Time Rate Per Client (kbps)
-
Burst Upstream Real-Time Rate Per Client (kbps)
|
Step 17
|
Click the SSID Data Rates to configure the following SSID data rate limits per SSID by entering values in the respective fields:
-
Average Upstream Data Rate Per SSID (kbps)
-
Burst Upstream Data Rate Per SSID (kbps)
-
Average Upstream Real-Time Rate Per SSID (kbps)
-
Burst Upstream Real-Time Rate Per SSID (kbps)
-
Average Downstream Data Rate Per SSID (kbps)
-
Burst Downstream Data Rate Per SSID (kbps)
-
Average Downstream Real-Time Rate Per SSID (kbps)
-
Burst Downstream Real-Time Rate Per SSID (kbps)
Note
|
To lock all the properties in the design, click Lock all. To lock a specific property, click the lock symbol next to that property.
|
|
Step 18
|
Click 802.11ax Configuration to configure the 802.11ax BSS Configuration parameters. You can use the toggle button to enable or disable the following
configuration parameters:
-
BSS Target Wake Up Time
-
Downlink OFDMA
-
Uplink OFDMA
-
Downlink MU-MIMO
-
Uplink MU-MIMO
Note
|
To lock all the properties in the design, click Lock all. To lock a specific property, click the lock symbol next to that property.
|
|
Step 19
|
Click Save.
The created design instance appears in the Design Instances window under the Advanced SSID Configuration - Model Config area.
|
Step 20
|
To edit a design, check the check box next to the design name that you want to edit, and click Edit. Make the changes and click Save.
|
Step 21
|
Attach the created config design to a network profile so that it can be deployed on the wireless controller. In the Cisco DNA Center GUI, click the Menu icon () and choose .
|
Step 22
|
Provision the model config design specified in the network profile to network devices. In the Cisco DNA Center GUI, click the Menu icon () and choose .
